the problem seems restricted to the 64bit test version of cygwin.

$ uname -svm
CYGWIN_NT-6.1 2015-11-21 16:59 x86_64

The issue is not present on 2.3.1

$ ping 2.2.2.2
PING 2.2.2.2 (2.2.2.2): 56 data bytes

----2.2.2.2 PING Statistics----
2 packets transmitted, 0 packets received, 100.0% packet loss

$ uname -srm
CYGWIN_NT-6.1 2.3.1(0.291/5/3) x86_64


And the 32 bit version is not impacted

$ ping 2.2.2.2
PING 2.2.2.2 (2.2.2.2): 56 data bytes

----2.2.2.2 PING Statistics----
2 packets transmitted, 0 packets received, 100.0% packet loss

$ uname -srm
CYGWIN_NT-6.1-WOW 2.4.0(0.292/5/3) i686
